1. What is working in Remote?

1. We often hear that it is the fact of working as a digital nomad, remotely or at home
2. For an employee
   - It is the fact of working from home
   - Some expenses are paid by his boss (electricity, tech tools ...)
   - He can work his full time from home or go to work (called face to face) 1, 2, 3 or 4 days a week depending on what is agreed with his boss
3. For a freelancer or an entrepreneur
   - It is the fact of working from the place where he wants
   - From home
   - In a café dedicated to the "worker"
   - In a co-working space
   - Abroad, in an Airbnb for example
   - One decides to work remotely with the aim of changing the working environment, to get some fresh air or to isolate oneself
4. This is what I did myself when I tried coworking spaces (here, a little article to read for inspiration) in the nearest big city to me

1. Action n° 1 🧐: Prepare

1. Plan all the equipment you will need on site
2. The minimum: Laptop, Water bottle, Backpack or handbag, Notepad and pen and
3. TIPS ✍️ - Don't forget your Earpods to isolate yourself from ambient noise if necessary

2. Action n° 2 🤓: Organize

1. Make sure your destination has a place where you can work in peace and quiet
2. Never forget to check the most important thing: Internet access
3. Is there an option to order something for your lunch? If not, plan a small, simple and healthy meal to be productive throughout the day
4. Does the place where you work offer activities (tennis, paddle, pool, sauna, group classes, ...) If so, organize the time of day when you are least productive in Deep work, to do it at that time (and don't forget your stuff 🤿🎾🏓🏀🛼 )

1. Think about your budget on the spot, whether it is abroad, in a co-working space or in a coffee shop, you have to budget everything, because paying for your drinks one day ok
2. But if you have to multiply your consumption and the cost of your life X 30 days it figures...
